African Safari Wildlife Park opened new exhibit

PORT CLINTON - African Safari Wildlife Park will have a ribbon cutting ceremony from 4 to 6 p.m. June 12 to celebrate the Park's 50th season. The park has opened a new exhibit, Aviary Adventure.

Aviary Adventure is a walk-thru exhibit where guests can encounter hundreds of colorful budgies. Budgies, commonly known as parakeets, are small birds that come in a variety of color patterns and are native to Australia. Guests will be able to interact directly with the birds by purchasing feed sticks, which will allow the birds to perch and eat seed while the guest holds the stick. The aviary houses approximately 300 budgies.

Summer hours of operation 9 a.m. to 7 p.m., with the last car admitted at 6 p.m. The park is open daily through Dec. 2 at 267 S. Lightner Road.
